    Chapter 600: The Formation of the Three Great Realms

    “Boom!”

    Above the three heavens, divine thunder danced wildly, streaking across the sky.

    Transforming into traces that vanished deep within the world, an unimaginable immense power was permanently solidified within the world.

    Yun Ye stretched out his arms, his divine might enveloping the entire world, conducting an unprecedented transformation, as many things in the Red Heaven realm changed.

    With the old powers of Red Heaven thoroughly cleansed, the realm had completely become Yun Ye’s domain, with all authority resting in his hands.

    What does this represent?

    With a single thought, heaven and earth turned upside down, the world rewrote itself, and everything could become reality, fully establishing himself as the Divine Monarch of humanity.

    Yun Ye had the power to accomplish many things, not necessarily relying on Dao artifacts.

    “The Three Pure Lightning illuminates the formation of heaven and earth.”

    “The formation is complete; the great evil shall be eradicated.”

    The Three Pure Lightning clears away chaos, erases wickedness, and purges desires: it was a unique method of eliminating evil that Yun Ye specifically extracted using Heavenly Stem Spirit Law.

    This divine thunder only targeted the spirit, causing no harm to even a blade of grass. Although it was a man-made heavenly tribulation, its power could strike even a Monarch without fail, deeply inscribed into the natural laws of heaven and earth, existing as if it were a rule of the cosmos, a natural phenomenon, a formation of the heavens and earth, unshakable.

    The king of the Manifest Realm and those at the Honored Position level possess power at the level of rules in the Red Heaven realm, allowing them to alter the rules to a certain extent.

    The king of the Manifest Realm gathers power at a higher dimension to form a unique domain, with the drawback being that they cannot materialize their powers directly to pass on to their descendants, yet the advantage is that it can never be taken away. Though growth is challenging, they can stably pass on the power of their bloodline without interruption.

    The path for the human Honored Position differs somewhat; it consolidates power at the Red Heaven dimension, representing the ultimate manifestation of the powers of the Honored Position. It significantly lowers the difficulty of humans advancing to the Honored Position, continuously developing power, and growing in capability.

    This path was necessary due to the short lifespan of humans.

    It was also the route many powers chose to consolidate their strength.

    Learning from the king of the Manifest Realm is akin to opening one’s inheritance to all of humanity; however, if one condenses ‘the entity of Honored Position power,’ they can rely on this ‘power entity’ to physically pass on strength to heirs, preserving their doctrine while preventing the secrets of inheritance from leaking.

    This direction of inheritance limits the Honored Position’s use of power to the ‘power entity,’ but it does not mean that this ability has vanished.

    Even if Yun Ye had not yet become a Monarch, he could still interfere with the order of the Red Heaven realm, setting up the formations and influencing future generations.

    “The Three Pure Lightning illuminates the formation of heaven and earth.”

    “The formation of the Red Heaven curtain fractures.”

    “The formation of the underworld that seeks souls.”

    Yun Ye consecutively set up the three great formations, enveloping the entire Red Heaven realm; this was his utmost limit.

    While his power was endless and he could continue without issue, the Red Heaven realm would soon face problems.

    So much power etched deep into heaven and earth would not go unnoticed.

    The positions in heaven and earth are limited, and establishing three major formations equated to cutting off the possibility of achieving the Honored Position and manifesting for tens of thousands of years to come.

    This possibility refers to the creation of new positions; existing positions could still be inherited, but the difficulty would increase. Even so, it would be a disaster, and many prodigies might fall in their pursuit of inheriting power.

    The three great formations were the ultimate formations surpassing the Royal Path, forever overshadowing the Red Heaven.

    The Red Heaven curtain would cut off the possibility of external invasion, suppressing all powers that exceed the limits.

    The Royal Path powers would most likely never return, while the fate of the celestial clans remained unknown. Neither Yun Ye nor Tong Ming Qiong understood the Dao Classics of various celestial clans. After all, some powers choose not to act, and predicting the future was beyond reach.

    He wanted to break through, but these celestial clans quickly sealed themselves off, refusing to give him a chance, unwilling to clash head-on with him, the uncrowned Monarch.

    This was somewhat strange; it seemed they acted so decisively because they knew he possessed the Future Spirit Law, not allowing him to collect any intelligence.

    In this situation, Yun Ye could only give up.

    “The underworld that seeks souls formation is set in the Earth Continent, gathering the souls of the entire Red Heaven, forming the underworld and creating a complete system.”

    “Is brother planning to use these souls as energy to trap the World God within the formation?”

    Shui Wuge had a clear understanding of two of the three major formations, but she could not fully grasp the underworld formation, as it seemed to have multiple intentions.

    “Exactly. The World God has fully awakened, but is restrained by the formation. Everywhere he passes, various life forms evolve, spirit veins are depleted, which severely affects the formation’s operation. The Earth Continent has become uninhabitable for humans, and no living beings can exist anymore.”

    “Furthermore, the formation of the underworld can allow some heavily sinning individuals to receive their due rewards. Whether it’s boiling oil or climbing mountains of knives and seas of fire, these experiences can stimulate the souls’ emotions, transforming them into energy for the formation, which counts as recycling.”

    “As for the Three Pure Lightning illuminating the formation of heaven and earth, it will send them down to hell, and once the three major formations are completed, it will at least make the world a bit clearer, right?”

    Yun Ye smiled and said. He could not achieve absolute fairness, but doing something was better than the current state of the world.

    “Indeed, things would become clearer…”

    Shui Wuge hesitated to speak.

    “What is it? If you have a question, go ahead and ask.”

    “Now that these formations are set up, will those True Immortals remain unmoved? This will greatly affect their control over the Red Heaven realm, and their wariness towards you will only become stronger. Perhaps they had originally planned not to act during the World God’s descent, but now they might reassess their gains and losses.”

    Shui Wuge remarked.

    “They won’t. These are trivial matters; compared to modification of rules, they are insignificant, and moreover, the Master of Heaven’s Cavern should have a position among the celestial beings.”

    Yun Ye replied with a smile.

    “There should be a position among the celestial beings, does brother truly have hope of becoming a True Immortal? Is it really so?”

    Shui Wuge’s heart skipped a beat.

    Becoming a True Immortal is the highest ambition of cultivators; as the saying goes, when one becomes enlightened, even the chickens and dogs ascend to the heavens. Once Yun Ye became a True Immortal, she would feel immense honor.

    Moreover, True Immortals could indeed protect cultivators, allowing ordinary ones to escape the constraints of lifespan rules, extending their life far beyond that of the Master of Heaven’s Cavern.

    In every regard, it was advantageous.

    “Becoming a True Immortal, indeed…”

    Yun Ye’s expression turned mysterious, and then he collected himself and explained the reasons to Shui Wuge.

    Currently, the entire world was shrouded beneath the Heavenly Stem Cave Heaven, making it impossible for True Immortals to see what was happening in the Red Heaven realm.

    If True Immortals wanted to know the situation, they could only descend their powers to test the waters; repeating such actions would be akin to outright extermination.

    Now, True Immortals either had to choose to act early and annihilate everything, cutting off the possibilities of becoming a True Immortal or Enlightened One, or they could ignore the situation and wait for the Master of Heaven’s Cavern to modify the rules, before striking to eliminate.

    The implications of attaining enlightenment were significant, and the True Immortals surely understood this.

    However, becoming a True Immortal was obscured by the Heavenly Dry Universe, making it difficult for True Immortals to grasp, yet there was the World God to utilize, granting a very high Success Rate, surpassing any previous era.

    This was precisely why, when the blue sky returns to the heavens, they spoke of discussing the outer universe ten thousand years later.

    The "outer universe" here implies the belief that Yun Ye would undoubtedly achieve the Royal Path and reach the outer universe, with a slight chance of becoming a True Immortal, but it was not guaranteed, hence it was not referred to as the outer heavens.

    Monarchs often enter the outer universe to negotiate with True Immortals; life or death could hinge on a single thought.

    Yun Ye could only set up the formations before achieving the Royal Path, or there might not be time.

    “Now I understand!”

    Shui Wuge realized, a sigh she could not hide in her eyes. How could she not catch on? It seemed her brother would not choose the future with the greater chance of becoming a True Immortal.

    He aimed to become Enlightened.

    To modify the rules of heaven and earth, creating a true prosperous era for future generations.
